My son told me last night his teacher told him I should whip him morning noon and night because he doesnt listen. Then he said another teacher was in on the conversation. I have felt this way once or twice but I never said it to him and I really dont like the teacher saying this to him. I know she was probably trying to get him to act right but something about this burns me up. I am going to let her know today after school and the priciple again about what to say to my kid. I know she is dealing with alot but she is not perfect either. I think that was just wrong. How about you guys what do you think? I cant wait to get out of there!

Can you say UNPROFESSIONAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How dare she? I don't give a rat's butt how bad a kid is, I could never seriously say that to a child w/out hearing about it BIG TIME. Let alone to have another teacher there too? ?? What are these people thinking? I'm sorry but, I'd be fuming and in the office or on the phone ASAP. There is no, and I mean NO, reason that she should be vocal concerning the discipline of your child, except if she thinks that you are harming your child, to your child. My question to the educational system would be, what are you going to do about it? Not, are you going to do something? WHAT will you do? You know what I mean. Here's the broom and hat>>>>>>>>> Have fun and keep your cool, that'll make em even madder Kaiti

OOOOHHHHHHHHH!!!! I don't like his teacher at ALL... Every time I read one of these posts about her (she's the one with the cell phone right?) it just makes my blood boil!!
I cannot believe she actually said that to your son!! I would DEFINATELY be on the phone...better yet, I'd be on their DOORSTEP. I would let the principal know in no uncertain terms that REGARDLESS of how close it is to the end of the school year, that you WILL NOT put up with this teacher's behavior!
Sounds to me like she's more child-like than the children! She has absolutely no RIGHT to be teaching! Has she NO IDEA how she is effecting these children? School is supposed to be a fun learning environment... not one to be dreaded!!
GRRRR!!!!!!!!!!

Anna took all the I was feeling with that last GRRRRRR.
I just still can't fathom that happening. I got talked to a couple of months ago about having a child write sentences. You know the "I will keep my comments to myself" type. It's worded so as to not reinforce the negative, but to ENforce the wanted behavior.
CORPRAL PUNISHMENT. Ok, then next time, I'll just tell the kids I wish they were beat more at home so they'd behave for me. UMMMMM Can you say I'd definately be loosing my job.
I'm still praying for ya....... Kaiti

i have a meeting at the school in the morning. Me and my sons dad. She call today with the cell phone and sad my son told a 3rd grader he was going to kick his --- well I havent gotten it to what was said to him but I am not going to let the bad langauge slide. Man I am starting to think I have lost control. She doesnt even like talking to me anymore I dont think I say what she wants to hear anymore. She calls his dad for everything. I am going to let dad know about what she said about the whippings and he wont be so nice anymore. I hate to say it but I dont think tomorrow morning will be nice at all.

It doesn't have to be nice. It doesn't have to be pretty. What it has to be is an understanding between you all. I'm all for whooping my kid, I don't have to do it much anymore, but don't tell my kid that it needs to be done.
Well, as far as respect goes, that just went right out the window. Make sure that you and dad are on the same page and have all the information between you 2 shared before going in. That way you 2 won't be wondering "what are they talking about" with each other.
Good luck and ((((((hugs))))))) Kaiti

You need to let that teacher know who is BOSS!
You're child will never respect her, and therefore behave for her with the SHENANIGANS (sp?) she pulls!
I think it's time for momma to get off her broomstick and in the teachers face! I'm not saying physically violent, but I am saying that you are going to have to get nasty. Tell dad about the comment, and if he doesn't know it, tell about the cell phones. It's hard to act like a *itch when you have an accomplice who doesn't want to participate. Normally, I would tell you not to get down to her level, but it sounds like she hasn't ever matured past junior high, and it's going to take extreme tactics to get your point across.
Tell her if she ever speaks to your kid that way again, she will answer to you. Do not threaten, do not harrass, just let her know that if she continues to treat your child that way, there will be consequences and leave it up to her imagination as to what they'll be.
Let me tell you a story, Have a sis 2 years younger than me. She had an evil teacher in 3rd grade. My mom went 'round and 'round with the administration and teacher over the way she treated my sis. She kept my sis so upset that she was physically sick. She would vomit and get diarrhea. This went on for a month or so. They wouldn't move my sis to a new class. Then one day, we were at an assembly in the gym, and I was on the top bleacher. I saw my sis walking by, reached out and grabbed her arm to tell her hi, the teacher was behind her, jerked sis away to gripe at her for talking, and PUSHED me away. I hit my head on the metal ladder on the wall that went up to the press box (had a knot) and almost fell off the bleachers. I didn't tell anyone at school cause I knew how things were going with my mom and the administration. Told mom when I got home, though. That was the last straw for her. She went to the school and straight to the teacher and told that teacher what would happen if she ever touched me or sis again. Then she went to the principal and LOUDLY explained to him that my sis WOULD be moved. They moved her and from that point on, that teacher wouldn't even look at me or sis in the hallways. Sis's stomach issues got all better in a matter of days, and from that point onward was a happy, successful student. My mother never had to go to the school again and complain about anything.
Moral is, I think that sometimes things just come to a point where you have to LAY DOWN THE LAW. Once that happens, the school will realize that it's no fun to listen to you gripe anymore.

Then if you aren't satisfied, I threaten to call local newspapers and tv stations. If you aren't satisified by then, do it. Aimee took the words right out of my mouth! If a child said that to a parent and a teacher heard, they would have to report it to DFACS! What happens when a teacher does it! I would have her job! I swear I would! I would be on the phone with the news people in a heart beat telling them about this teacher who is abusing, yes abusing, her kids! I don't care if the year is almost over, get this teacher FIRED before she has a chance to do it to another child! Grr! This makes me mad! Can we here the Donald say..... You're fired!Please let us know how it went this morning!

ok last night it got worse. My oldest son witnesses her harrasing my little boy. he said he was in the hall by Jasons class and he saw the teacher shaking him and yelling about something my son slumped down in the corner and she threw his books out of the class and my oldest boy got the books and him and to him to the 8th grade class for a while. the other kids in his class asked him was he going to do something. It seems like yesterday was a huge problem. My son said he was afraid to say anything because she may try to get him suspends him right before 8th grade graduation so he used a friends cell phone to call me. I didnt answer my phone so he waited until I got home to tell me. Now this morning I brought up everything and we let her know how we felt. I wanted to get really ugly but his dad handeled her well he let her know she better not ever pull this again. Well I think she got the point but I know the rest of the year is going to be rocky. The principle let her know it was not acceptable and he was to be sent to her if the teacher felt she couldnt control things. I will be so glad when this is over. My boy got up this morning and started to cry because it wasnt Saturday and he had to go to school.

Oh no, , I'm sorry but given this latest info, there is no way I would be satisfied with that!! Like I said, I wouldn't stop until I had this woman's job! And I certainly wouldn't make my child spend one more minute in a classroom with her!! I would call that school back and tell them I did some more thinking on the subject and if they couldn't get him into another classroom to finish out the year, then I am requesting his work be sent home where he will be kept until then. I would then tell them that I want disciplinary actions taken out on this teacher TODAY, or I would be contacting an attorney and the news media. I would follow-up by saying I'm not real sure if I won't anyway. This teacher touched my child, and shook him, and that is phyical abuse and against the law!Please, for the sake of future pupils of this idiot, do not stop now!
